Pipe Belt Conveyor Simulation System Analysis And Design

With the rapid development of the national economy and the growing awareness of environments protection, the mechanical transportation and logistics industry is in urgent need of the belt conveyer which has advantage of sharp inclination trasportation and three-dimensional curve lay out, to promote the no-interval transportation automation level, and create pollution-fee transportation environment at the same time. In this condition, the best choice is the Pipe belt conveyer, because it can keep up with the progress of time, satisfy all the above requests. It can not only solve the problem of production in constrained space, but also reduce the cost and promote the environment.This topic comes from the natural science fund project of the Guizhou Province authorized in 2005 year, in which, "the analysis and design of the Pipe belt conveyer's simulation system" is the key sub-project. Based on the thorough analysis of the transportation theory of the Pipe belt conveyer, we can design appropriate simulation system and make full use of the many advantages of the system simulation so as to optimize the research and analysis of transportation theory on the Pipe belt conveyer and save the time in product designing and shaping.This thesis aims to resolve the following problems:1. The analysis and design method of the simulation system which is based on the Object-oriented Simulation (OOS) Technology, the whole system architecture is created by used of it too. The simulation system is made up of three vertical layers: application layer, simulation system work layer and data management layer. The system is divided into five function modules according to the problems to be solved in the project and the expansibility of the system.2. By designing the four kinds of classes, such as Simulation Arithmetic Classes, Parameter Model Classes, Simulation Model Classes and Experiment Frame Classes; the simulation system has the "expanding function" so that the mechnician can simulate other mechanic system through appending, modifying or deleting any proper classes.3. The simulation system designed in this thesis will make it possible to change the calculation results into the 3D sketch displayed in the screen by use of OpenGL sketch interface and calling OpenGL functions in the windows 2000 professional operation system and programming tool Visual C++.4. Display the simulation calculation of curve radius and the length of the transition segments respectively by use of programming skill of calling C++ program and MATLAB function.5. The thesis studies the curve equation of the channel. Taking into account the practical operation situation in which changes slightly in shape, the thesis modifies the equation of the length of the transition segments with the scientific calculation method and simulates the calculation results on the computer by use of the simulation tools. According to the simulation results, the method can simulated the real operation situation of the transition segments of the Pipe belt.The simulation system of the Pipe belt conveyer which is designed in the thesis can successfully fulfill the task of simulating the equation of the mechanical system on computer; meanwhile, the simulation system archieves the aim of diplaying the 3D sketch of the relevant mechanical parts.
